People who have to propagate an image of being ?hard? tend to do so to cover up some feeling of inadequacy. Same as people who are c@nts in order to succeed in the political or business world do.


I could strip, reassemble and fire a handgun when I was 10 years old, I can kick a football straight, I can handle myself when necessary and I?m pretty well educated but I feel no need to use these things to somehow validate my manhood or value to society. Although admittedly I now seem to be indulging in a little macho posturing.


A person?s value is the value that those around them ascribe to them. Personally I?ve found that neither being ?hard? nor ?successful? influences this positively. They are just self indulgent states of being.


Oh and I deal with government on a daily basis and do not approve of the way it functions at all but believe me, people do not get to the top by being soft.

When Mic first went on TV he got lots of this sort of stick, he even said if you put yourself up there expect to be shot down. I personally think most of the comments are laughable but I see no one replied to this racist comment, because no matter how skilful the prose you can?t hide what you really are.

I didn't even notice the racist comment before and think it's out of order. I also think you lot all went on the defensive cos none of you can kick a ball straight.


When the oil runs out and climate change hits, there won't be the kind of civilisation you lot are propped up by now. If you can't build your own house, grow your own food or protect your land, you are gonna be in trouble.

Excuse me chaps - hold on to your hats. There was no racist comment and none intended. I think you must be very weird to see what was admittedly a personal pop, due to my sick sense of humour at someone I don't know, as racist. Since I have no idea of his ethnic/national background and never gave it a thought as I assumed he was a salt of the earth yeoman I think you need to retract this statement.

    • There was an excellent discussion on Newscast last night between the BBC Political Editor, the director of the IFS and the director of More In Common - all highly intelligent people with no party political agenda and far more across their briefs than any minister I've seen in years. The consensus was that Labour are so unpopular and untrusted by the electorate already, as are the Conservatives, that breaking the manifesto pledge on income tax wouldn't drive their approval ratings any lower, so they should, and I quote, 'Roll The Dice', hope for the best and see where we are in a couple of years time. As a strategy, i don't know whether I find that quite worrying or just an honest appraisal of what most governments actually do in practice.
    • They are a third of the way through their term Earl. It's no good blaming other people anymore. They only have three years left to fix what is now their own mess. And its not just lies in the manifesto. There were lies at the last budget too, when they said that was it, they weren't coming back for more tax and more borrowing. They'd already blamed the increase in NIC taxes on what they claimed was a thorough investigation. They either knew everything then or they lied about that too .   They need to stop lying and start behaving. If they don't the next government won't be theirs, it will be led by Nigel Farage.  They have to turn it round rapidly. Blaming other people, telling lies and breaking promises isn't going to cut it any more.
    • Is it lame? Or is it Lamey? (sorry)
